Hi Friends! I love making fun banners for parties. In today’s video I will show you how to make a pennant style banner for 4th of July but feel free to change up to colors for a baby shower, birthday or whatever you want to celebrate.

Directions:
1. Cut 3 7″ circled from red cardstock and glue a white doily in the center of each.
2. Cut a 4″ star from blue cardstock and glue on the doily.
3. Cut “USA” from double stick tape and place in the center of stars (or draw the letters with wet glue) and sprinkle with glitter.
4. Attach the decorated circles to a stand of star garland using mini clothespins.

Hi Friends! One of the most versatile supplies in my craft room is Kraft paper. One minute it is covering my work surface to protect it from ink and paint spills and the next moment is it being used to beautifully wrap a gift. Kraft doesn’t just stop at paper, you can get so many products from Papermart made from sturdy kraft paper and cardboard and with just a few supplies tun them in to beautiful custom party decor and gift packaging.

The big reason I like kraft is that it goes with everything! It is may favorite neutral. Sure black is elegant and white is a pure blank canvas but kraft is comfortable and since it is a mid value color already you don’t have to do much to it to make it look done. Watch the video and see what I mean.

Directions: Distress the kraft paper products with gesso and ink. Layer on paper and stamp. Embellish with jute cord and star garland.

Try dressing up your kraft paper products with pastel shades of acrylic paint for Easter, bridal and baby showers, try mint and gold for weddings and try stamping polka-dots with a wine cork and any color acrylic paint on kraft paper to make a cheerful birthday wrap! The more you use kraft paper the more ideas you will come up with! Thanks for stopping by and til next time happy crafting!
